re: Anybody ask Les if the thought of running Hill entered his feeble mind?

Yes, but rushing stats per carry can be deceptive when including a long run like Hill's right after the half. Its about momentum at the time and how many in the box and where. And frankly, our OL was not getting the rush push nor blocking for the pass at all. They straight beat us in that area. ...but we were out 3 starting OL (one being our early 1st rounder) and had 2 18yr old kids blocking in only their 7th college game vs an experienced, motivated angry crew. It happens.

But mostly it was Miles giving well earned cred to Ware, tellin ya. ...and trying to counter Clemson's d formation. who would guess they would pass? this was his thinking. but Mett wasnt accurate. Actually, he wasnt accurate all night. So yes, a headscratcher, but if he makes the pass, thats it, game over. Then they went 4th & 16, even after a huge sack by Mingeaux on 1st down.

Tellin ya, cant take this victory away from those playaz, that's the hardest I ever seen Dabo's boys play. Truth is we really didnt deserve the win if we got that first down there. Now, the bama win, we deserved that one if we got that 1st down, but lost it anyway. Tis life, game of inches. And frankly, I enjoyed Dabo's post game antics. He is second only to Miles for entertainment value.
